To the Work.

In 1884 the relative positions OF the two
great parties were reversed. The repub
lican party which for twenty-tour years
had administered the affairs of govern
ment so successfully was practically de-
posed by the democratic party making
use of fraud and intimidation. A demo
cratic President was placed in the chair
filled tor many years by the ablest and
most illustrious men of the nation. A
democratic Cabinet was formed and in =
stalled in the secretary ships which always
demanded men of the brightest intellect
aud shrewdest business capacity. A horde
of hungry office seekers was elevated to
positions of trust and responsibility in the
public service, without the necessary
qualification or experience. Stumbling,
laundering and experimenting succeeded
order, system and method. Nearly three
years OF this administration has passed.
Not one important item of legislation has
been enacted by the democratic Congress.
Not one great national question has been
answered by the administration leaders.
Not one single point of distinct policy
has been marked and demonstrated by the
party. This unfortunate exhibit is real
lied by no party more torcibly than by
the party in power. The sense of it's
weakness has been working harm in its
every part. Harmony has been succeeded
by division. Its parts are growing more
and more distinct. rendered so by the
increasing divergence of ideas. The
divisions are great and important since by
the change of sentiment upon the tariff.
the solid South is gradually being split in
to two parts. The condition OF the party is
alarming its leaders who see that its ills
and ails cannot be remedied by the APP
plication of those liniments and poultices
which formerly worked such wonderful
cures.
Not as was hopefully anticipated by its
opposers has the tall of the republican
party dashed itself to pieces. Though de-
posed, it remains complete. Harmony

spirit of its constitution that its condition
could not be otherwise. With pride it
looks upon the great work accomplished
and with confidence in its honesty and
success views complacently the .'rascals"
in power as they search and explore for
evidences of those improved charges
which were preferred during the last cam
paign. Willingly it allows the pilfering
democrats to appropriate and advance the
principles of republcanism, and to claim
undisputed proprietorship OF them, know
ing that only the brains which evolved
them can successfully apply them. In
every way powerful and healthful check
upon the administration, it stands ready
to exhibit democratic mistakes and errors.
As it is, neither party is engaged in any
satisfactory management of the affairs of
the country. The democrats have

The democrats of Iowa commend "the
vigorous prosecution of faithless officials
and those who have corrupted them now
being conducted by democratic prosecut-
ing officers in New York and Chicago as
hopeful sign of a reform of public NOR
ais" and it is all commendable. But
democrats in Iowa and elsewhere ought to
keep we'll in mind the fact that the demo-
cratic prosecuting attorneys are only en-
titled to fair share of the credit for these
prosecutions, and that the democratic
party has been best represented in them

LONDON, March 17th.-The abortiye at
tempt to assassinate the Car proves to have
been one of the most fendish schemes ever
laid by Anarchists in any country. The
Russian cepsors, after three days refiec-.
ton, have allowed the details to be tele-
graphed, which reached London this
Thursday night. The sensation produced
here was less than might have been ex-
peeted.
The person most deeply affected by the
Russian incident is the Queen, who is said
by her friends to apprehend some outrages
from London Socialists during the Jubilee
procession. She intends, nevertheless, to
make such a royal progress through Lon
don as this generation has not seen.
The. programme as now sketched, is
a very large one. The Queen
insists that the ceremony shall be held
in Westminster Abbey, where she was
crowned, and not in ST. Paul's. When
told that the drive from Buckingham Pal
ace to the Abbey was too short to enable
the people to see her, the Queen said
8 You must take me from the Palace as
early as you like, do with me whet you
think best, and bring me back at no mat
ter what hour; but the ceremony must
be in the Abbey, and nowhere else"
The officials concerned are taking full
advantage of this large permission. They
propose that the Queen shall drive in full
state (Which she has not done since Prince
Albert's death), from the Palace up Consti-
tuition Hill, through Hyde Park to the
Marble Arch, thence along Oxford street,
Holborn, Newgate and Cheapside to
the bank OF the Thames, and thence back
either by the embankment or by Fleets
Strand and Whitehall to the Abbey.
The police expect an attack, but the So
cialist mob is cowed by Sir Charles War
ren's firm handling. LAS for private
malice, or individual Anarchists, said an
experienced officer, we fear nothing, be-
cause every man who meditates mischief
knows that if he attacked the Queen ne
would be torn TO pieces by the crowd"
The English public rejoices in the pros
pect Of big parade, but continues to kick
against the injudicious Jubilee efforts by
over-loyal courtiers.
Strong efforts are being made to change
the day of the celebration from Tuesday,
the 2lst, to Monday June Goth, Monday
being in English eyes the workingmen's
holiday.

LONDON. March 17th.-Sir George Ire
velyan's speech at Liskeard yesterday has
done him no good with the Tories or Lib
eral Unionists. They attack him this
morning, in curious blunder, from their
own point of view, in no measured terms.
If they wanted to drive him back into the
Gladstonian camp they could hardly say
more. Yet, Sir George shows no real dis
position to recede from the essential points
of difference between himself and Glad
stone on home rule He practically stands
where Chamberlain does, waiting for Glad
s;one to speak the word which shall bridge
over the chasm between the two sections of
the Liberal party, or leave it yawning.
The Liberal Unionists are believed TO
have come to terms with the Government
respecting the Irish land bill. The ex-
treme wing of the Ministry, who were
looking to coercion as the only thing neces-
sary for the salvation of Ireland, are de-
feaied on the question of principles. They
keep up the fight, nevertheless. Their
present tactics are,while conceding the bill
on principle, to delay its introduction and
progress in Parliament, perhaps to divide
the measure SO that no other scheme for
putting an end 10 the present system of
dual ownership can become law at this
session. The Ministry to-day believe the
end of the debate on the first rule for the
adoption of the closure is in sight.

claims for her. Scotland and Ireland refuse
to have anything to do with the Jubilee in

ity, has declined to take part in the prepa-
